2005 Cadillac CTS-V

Asking Price Range

Estimated MPG

Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP), also known as "sticker" price, is a recommended selling price that automakers give a new car that is above the invoice price paid by the dealer. It is a price that does not include any options that can be added to a particular car style. When shown as a range, the prices are starting MSRPs, without options, for multiple styles for that model.

This price range reflects for-sale prices on Cars.com for this particular make, model and year.

These city and highway gas mileage estimates are for the model's standard trim configurations. Where there are optional features, packages or equipment that result in higher gas mileage, those fuel-economy estimates are not included here.

CaddyVette

by Mike from Baltimore | May 15, 2015

I haven't owned mine long. It has 116,000 miles on her, but very fun to drive. The buttons on nav system and several others has it's paint missing exposing the white plastic underneath. I hear that is common, but doesn't speak well for a vehicle that's supposed to be know for quality. Worried about the differential since Cadillac didn't feel the need to upgrade the basic on from the base CTS, and there have been countless complaints about differentials blowing up and whining. Ride is good, if not stiff, but I don't mind. It does have more cabin noise than I'd like. Overall, she's a very comfortable, and fun car to drive!

2005 cadillac CTS V6 3.6L

by Pete from Dumfries, VA | January 29, 2013

The car is a very beautiful car, extremely spacious on the inside for a mid size sedan. It handles well and every thing still works at 82K miles. I've owned a 1995 BMW and a 1991 Volvo before and I like both cars, but this Cadillac is definatly my favorite, not only because of the sharp look but the way it handles on the highway. I don't really take on the city streets much, because I use it has a vehicle that gets me back and forth to work or when traveling. I would recommend this car for someone who is over 40 yrs old and knows how to take their time, but can also get someplace fast with style if need be.

Style AND Substance!

by Motsie from Brunswick, GA | July 24, 2012

I bought this car new in 2005; it was good-looking and reasonably priced, and it beat the competition in nearly every category I used for comparison while shopping. 8 years and 130,000 miles later it's arguably still one of the best looking cars around (not counting the new CTS Coupe), still comfortable, relatively quiet, peppy and will turn on a dime. I've had NO mechanical problems, and only one electrical repair (which was my own fault). I'll buy another when it's time...

cadillac means quality?

by rex from Columbia. La | July 2, 2012

2995 cts one of the worse cars I have ever owned. Started using oil at 60,000 miles. Seats uncomfortable, little adjustments considering a cadillac. Now will not crank sometimes. Cadillac should be out of business if this is what Cadillac stands for.

2005 Cts-V

by MC from Wyoming | April 2, 2012

Bought the car with 39k runs great had some codes pop up after the first thousand miles had the fuel filter changed has not came back yet. The pins that hold the bottom of the back bumper had all 3 fell out had to replace the. The ergonomics of the shifter position and cup holders are not exactly proper. But great car so far and comfy for our family of four. It does great in the snow with snow tires on and we have made it through a Wyoming winter.

Best Car Ive owned yet!

by slick1010 from IL | February 22, 2012

Second car that Ive owned and I have to say that it is flawless. owned a grand am and had so many computer problems so I finally traded for the CTS It gets up and goes sport mode or without it I have the V6 model but these cars really are smooth rides their quiet no rattling with it being an 05 I wouldnt have thought it could run so nice and fuek economy is decent I usually get 23-26 but its how you drive any car only problem ive heard was parts are pricy but thats luxury for you and thats how most cars are now a days perfect in my eyes though

Worth Every Penny!!!

by CTS lover from Kansas | October 25, 2011

I've been driving a CTS on loan for about 5 months. I've always liked the way the CTS looks and its performance far outweighs design! I have not had any mechanical problems what-so-ever! Never heard a rattle or any kind of noise. The most I've done with this car is have the tires and oil changed. Besides the price of the synthetic oil this car is amazing! It has great "get up" and is very stylish. I do have to say replacements parts can be VERY pricey. The CTS I currently drive needs a taillight cover replaced and that was upwards of $500. I love this car so much I am looking to buy my own, no doubt!!
